The AST pads are amazing and have incredible bite, especially when warmed up. The pedal pressure is very linear and predictable.
I run Endless ME20 on my E92 (it has an F80 brakes retrofit) and they work great. Done 12 track days now on the set and they still have over 50% material left, but I'm on my 2nd set of track tyres. Not all the track days have been full-on though.
Akebono all the way..made in USA too
Akebono was the oem brand last I checked, not sure if still the case. I'm using them, and they stop just like oem, no noise or issues.
switched to Akebono brake pads and brake dust was gone on my f30.
They're quiet, low dust, and take away a little of the overly aggressive initial bite (i hate it, you might not).
On my particular vehicle, the front pads and rear pads have a friction code of GG. I am currently running the Akebobo ASP performance brake pads and have been completely satisfied and impressed with the performance.

On the factory pads you'll see around 55-60k on the original Akebonos.
I ran the MX72s until I melted them onto the rotors as well.
